Making sure the Munich festival grounds stay dry in 2018: Tireless lifting at tent builder Pletschacher
Konecranes supplies a double-girder bridge crane, electric chain hoists, and heavy-duty forklift to the Oktoberfest outfitter Pletschacher in Dasing
(firmenpresse) - Everything was in full swing at the Pletschacher Group in Dasing, Bayern: In August, 44 trailer trucks left the tent builderists from Konecranes help to make sure that everything that is important reaches the festival grounds on time.
The party tents at the Munich Oktoberfest could shelter the inhabitants of an entire city loading components, from heavy wooden beams to tarpaulins, planks, and wall elements and all the way to huge beer mugs, so its critical to ensure that everything is in place for the opening in Munich on September 22. To transport the tent elements quickly, safely, and reliably, Konecranes designed a double-girder bridge crane with 2 x 5 tonnes capacity, electric chain hoists, as well as a 10-tonne heavy-duty forklift for the Pletschacher Group.
The new equipment is used in the new storage area of Pletschacher in Dasing. All elements that are needed for the Oktoberfest tents and a lot more, are stored there in four halls on a total surface area of 16,500 sqm. Approximately 1,500 container loads fit inside the halls, and there is room for 500 additional containers outside. Pletschacher started in 1948 as a one-person operation. Today, it builds almost all of the large party tents and a majority of the smaller stands at the Oktoberfest event. The company, with headquarters in Dasing near Augsburg, also supplies other large folk festivals, such as the G
In addition to building party tents, Pletschacher is also involved in commercial, retail, and office construction, from the roof structure to the interior design.
Double-girder bridge crane
Pletschacher uses the four new halls to store material on Euro-pallets as well as in skeleton containers and up to 5-meter-long transport boxes. The loads, which weigh between 100 kilograms and 5 tonnes, must be moved and loaded inside the hall with speed and precision. y to operate, and must be able to load large wooden elements with precision. For this reason, Konecranes designed a customized double-girder bridge crane and electric chain hoists for Pletschacher. The crane has a span width of 18.5 meters and transports loads of up to 10 tonnes inside the hall. In order to be able to move bulky components, there is a distance of 3 meters between its two hoists, and it is equipped with Synchro-Hoisting hoist synchronization. It ensures identical hoisting speeds even in the case of different loads.
Furthermore, the hoisting and travel speeds of the crane can be adjusted continuously. The system can be controlled remotely with precision via joystick. Konecranes Service ensures high levels of availability.
Heavy-duty forklift
Pletschacher stores large quantities of material also outside the new halls
for a smaller turn radius. This means the driver is also able to maneuver it in narrow circumstances.
Safety thanks to height sensor and solid rubber tires
The exceptional safety of the forklift is ensured by a height sensor that automatically warns via acoustic signal in the cabin if the load is lifted at a height that exceeds 2.8 meters. Uwe H
An electronic weight indicator in the ergonomic, sound- and vibration-insulated Optima cabin allows safe transport and a precise loading process. The studless front window of the cabin also provides the driver with a very good overview, while the heated seating and air conditioning create a pleasant environment for several hours of work.
